Will Nvidia's Ray Tracing be a success or will it be abandoned?

Nvidia is known for some gimmicks out there such as DMM (digital Molecular Matter). DMM was suppose to be a realistic physics engine. DMM and RTX combined could make a life like game. I personally own a RTX 2060 but I don't have any games capable of ray tracing. One of the major problems with RTX is that the framerate is snapped in half when the effect is on according to people who have tested the RTX effect.
